MEET ATHENA!

A few of my favorite things: Sunbathing, Belly rubs, Car rides

Get ready to fall in love! Athena is a quiet, thoughtful girl who, once she gets to know you, will smooch and happily show you her tricks. This adorable sweetheart will win you over with her charm as well as her wit! Athena is such a gem, and is not only house and crate trained but readily offers up both paws for a shake, and can sit, lay down and roll over all on command! What a wonder dog! Athena has some strong opinions regarding other dogs and children and is searching for a home where she can be your loyal companion. This easy keeper is ready to join your home, heart and couch! Come meet her at HSCC today and see if she could be your new best friend!

You'll fall in love with this dog because they may be:

Cool - Level-headed, mellow, reserved, chivalrous, low maintenance demeanor
Tolerant - Gracious, gentle, patient with human and animals

You might find this dog difficult to live with because they may be:
